Rightie, you are spouting junk as usual. Trumpvirus already killed over 160.000+ with almost 5 million Americans infected as at now. The last GDP was 32.9% which is the worst in American history. Over 30 million Americans out of jobs and more expected. There's racial strife all over the country thanks to the Chief Racist in the White House. National Debt is going sky high. The bottom line is that we have elections coming up on Nov 3rd and Americans including yours truly will give our verdict and it will be a big F on the worst President in American history.

Dude, you should learn a thing or two from me. Whenever I state a statistics which is being debated, I post evidence to prove this. Not from right wing or left wing sources but from official government outlets.


Don't argue in isolation. My last comment proved in less that 4 year of Trump's administration, he achieve a low unemployment rate and job creation rate Obama couldn't in the 8 years of his administration (even without a pandemic to deal with).

Give me comparative facts with Trump and Obama from government websites with regards to the issue you want to state like I have been doing.

Learn to argue objectively and reign in your emotions, dude. Facts only.

SonofLincoln:
2016 ain't 2020. Obama left with good booming economy and there's no 160.000 dead Americans due to Trumpvirus

Dude, you on God's green earth are you glazing over facts with? You think I'm one of those who just argue? I'd hit you with fact.
Since 2010, there have been at least 61,000 deaths yearly during the flue season (which peaks in February). This year was no exception, yet the leftist media counted all such death as "Covid-19 deaths" to malign Trump.
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/flu-season.htm
Democrat-controlled US states started giving more financial incentives to hospitals which report deaths (regardless of the cause) as "Covid-19" death so they was massive fraud, especially by hitherto underfunded hospitals.

https://www.statesman.com/news/20200422/fact-check-do-hospitals-get-paid-more-to-list-patients-as-having-coronavirus
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-covid-19-deaths-are-counted1/
In fact, in a particular case which I commented on in Twitter months ago, some doctors admitted they don't need a coroner's report or show proof of death due to Covid-19 to report it as a Covid-19 death.
All of a sudden America where people did a lot due to heart-related diseases and obesity even when they are all moving about suddenly reduces when they are locked indoors, under-exercising and with worsening eating habits?
Who do you CNN teleprogrammed folks think you are arguing with?

and the unemployment is not over 10% as it is now and the National Debt is not $7 Trillion. Come up with something else. We good Americans are tired of the Racist Pig in the White House.

You are lying!
According to the official statistics, when Obama was leaving office in 2016, the US unemployment rate was 4.5 percent.
https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2017/article/unemployment-holds-steady-for-much-of-2016-but-edges-down-in-fourth-quarter.htm

https://www.statista.com/statistics/193290/unemployment-rate-in-the-usa-since-1990/
Even without a pandemic to battle with, Obama had unemployment rates as high as 9.8 percentage and he never went below 4.5 percent - a mark Trump crossed easily.

As at January 2020 under Trump (before the onset of the Coronavirus lockdown which crippled many economies actually), US unemployment rate was just 3.5 percent and even lower in 15 states.
In the period, the US recorded the fastest job creation in 30 years. (If you ask me the evidence for the this one and I provide it, you'd have to deactivate your account).
https://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2020/mobile/unemployment-rates-in-15-states-were-lower-than-the-3-point-5-percent-u-s-rate-in-december-2019.htm

I am deliberately quoting US agency websites for this so you don't claim bias.
Stop lying, Leftie.

salford1:
We don't need a soothsayer or an history professor to tell us the obvious.

Yet by all the polls you all ran in the lead up to the 2016 elections, Hillary Clinton was leading Trump by a wide margin and Trump would be beaten woefully. We all know who became 45.

Funfact: Trump was the only leading figure in the world to predict the outcome of the Brexit referendum correctly. Every other influential figure and agency got it wrong.


Like 2016, it's happening again - skewed polls by the fanatic left to say Joe Biden is leading.

We've seen this play out before.

China being its typically communist and dictatorial self has most likely manipulated the death toll and infection number to just one. I know its trying to prevent mass hysteria but its hoarding of information has deadly consequences.
I'd put the death toll at five and the number of infections at sixteen. And that's me just 'underguesstimating'.

I expect a strong reaction from Trump. He's been looking for more reasons to place sanctions on China. He's just gotten one - health safety of the US citizens.

DissTroy:
For some reason, I actually still remember you more times than I admit when surfing the pages of Nairaland. Almost on alternate days, I at random times keep local-searching "FirstKing" or "FirstKing01" to see if anyone else still remembers or mentions your moniker.

You were loyal. At least when the issues here became polarized years ago, you'd pick my side without even asking even when doing the opposite wouldn't exactly mean you were antagonising me. And you were from my extraction, someone I had friendly spars with in our dialect right on the pages of the many threads in this section.

I don't know how you're doing but I hope you take solace in the fact that two years on, someone you got acquainted with on Nairaland didn't just forget about you.

Rest on FirstKing / Firstking01 ; rest on, Udeme.

365 days after, you still pop up at random times when reliving the many antics here. Nobody's mentioned you since this but like me, I'd bet your memory wasn't completely erased. I don't think they forgot you - they are just grappling with the many challenges which come with our very finite existence.

Rest on FirstKing / Firstking01; rest on, Udeme.

SAMBARRY:
All these mummy's boys sef wey their brain still dey under their mummy's armpit

No maturity from the boy at all.cant he respectfully Tell his Mom to move back for peace to reign?

Awon my mummy said men.... tufiaaaaaa

See them all over the thread spewing rubbish

No common sense, they cannot make independent decisions without asking what mummy thinks about it.soon they still ask their mummy what part of the v@gyn@ they should put their preek inside

Sambarry, I'd tell you the truth: This post of yours explains why you are a SINGLE MOTHER. From all indications, after your many failed attempts at enjoying nuptial permanency, you still haven't learnt your lessons and have instead devolved into a hate-driven, vile being always at the vanguard of destroying the very foundation of the society - family (and, by inclusion, marriage).

Stereotypical examples like yourself who abound all over the cyberspace make it difficult for cultured single mothers to genuinely find love and happiness in relationships that might lead to marriage.

Those who frequent the Nairaland Family Section aren't surprised. Not one bit.

Rilwayne001:
Until we wake you to grab this government by their balls, they'll continue to take advantage of our gullibility and unseriousness.

Americans will protest at the slightest provocative government policies. But here, we will on whine on the internet and never the balls and unity to come out en masse. How will they not continue to rub shit on our face?

It's crazy that every time I stumble on your post - which is once in a while - I recollect your antics pre- and during the 2015 general elections. I know you've apologized for it several times and I'm not holding you to it. But one just imagines what could have been if there had been less supporters for him and if by 2019 folks like Fashola or Obi or Duke had been elected.

It's not you but my ability to recollect the minutest details of incidences many years after.

IspitonCowards:
Ok thanks for the clarification, so Ikwerre is like the minority among the Minority which is you guys?

Bkayyy:
True, ikwerre is just a community in rivers but do you believe that ibibio and ijaw are more than nupe or kanuri in population?

Ikwerre is really a minority among minorities. Like I defined, Ibibios and Ijaws are not really minorities. Their leaders play that card when they want to arm-twist the three major tribes. ...And I can understand. But Ibibios and Ijaws dominate everyone around them.

In fact, the NDDC saga and the controversies before have really been Ibibios and Ijaws slugging it out to see who takes control of the South South. And they are the most influential. Every president Nigeria has ever had hasn't dared to outrightly fight Ibibios and Ijaws. Even more, they are oil-rich.


The Nupes and Kanuris are like the Annangs who align with Ibibios just like they align with Fulanis politically. Individually they aren't strong or large.


If you understand the politics of the South South and Niger Delta, you'd understand the main reason why there's a battle for who controls the ministry and the commission. It's not really about corruption. Ibibios feel the Ijaws had headed it for too long so they've put their hold on it. Akpabio (who's Annangsm really but has an Ibibio chieftaincy title) is playing the Ibibio/Akwa-Cross card.

The M.D before is Ibibio and the agreement is for Ibibios to rule as long as the Ijaws did. But in truth, the leadership of the ministry and the commission has mostly revolved around Ibibios and Ijaws. Most people from the South South don't even know this.

IspitonCowards:
Please How many Local governments do they have?, I heard they are the largest tribe in SS

You are definitely ignorant of Nigeria's tribal composition.

Ibibios are the fourth largest tribe in Nigeria and the largest in the South South.
Ijaw is the fifth largest in Nigeria and the second largest in the South South.

Ikwerre isn't a tribe but a relatively small ethnic group. The Oros in Akwa Ibom are even larger than Ikwerre.

JesusJesus:
Dated a minor before. She was 13 and I was 28. That's 15 years difference.

I'm a born again Christian now ooo

Darn! Asides the fact that she's not of legal age and a jailbait, she's mentally immature and certainly couldn't have had the physical attributes of a WOMAN. What was the attraction because she was a child.

Raymondfayowole:
How do u support something u cant see...hav u ever witnessed violence at Nigeria stadium during live matches...wen a match is not on tv...how do u want me to support it...there are so many things yet to be achieved before Nigerians can start supporting their own...nd it starts wit d leadership up there...

Some Nigeria Premier League matches are actually aired on cable television but the commentary would put even the most fanatic fan off. It's almost like the commentators are analyzing the game from a palmwine joint and sniffing fresh tree barks while at it. Five minutes of listening to them would make you recommend rehab for all of them.

gensteejay:
At least, I've known Otem for over 2 years now on Nairaland.

In his own philosophy by his works, posts, and actions, he worships/prays to no god and always shuns forming any religion, cult, brotherhood, or followership/fellowship.

If he was chasing clout or looking to develop a cult, I would have regarded his book as a religious text, which I don't hold in high esteem.

Now, mockers can say whatever they like. When you pour water into a basket, let's know if the basket ever becomes full.

That's how futile a foolish person's criticism looks when he condemns what he doesn't know its content.

Just like I have recommend a number of books of history for people, I will do the same for a seminal book like Otem's.

It's always wise to read histories from various sources, rather than forming your beliefs on just one book like religious people do.

There's Greek history and Greek MYTHS. There's a reason why myths are termed myths.
You don't manufacture history. History is a recount of past happenings. It isn't created.

Otem's supposed historical recounts (while making for an interesting read strictly from a literary perspective) are the end-products of an overly-imaginative mind. Alternate-facts, actually.

JasonScoolari:
The North London boys surely have a way of making the West London boys look inferior... It was made manifest when the in-form North London stars anointed one of the West London illustrious son, Prof Yemi Osibande as the "Chairman, Use The Toilet Committee of Nigeria"

I trust Mallam Nasir "Aubameyang" El-rufai to put a nail in the coffin of his West London opponents come 2023 and equally send Asiwaju "Azpilecueta" Tinubu to a compulsory retirement.

Nairaland Akaebube himself. The politico-soccer analyses are back.

Macsjebs:
Maybe extended family doesn't make any difference again as they used to back in the day, so people just want to avoid issues and stay far way from 'bad energy'...

We can also say, boredom could be reason for some visits and social media has in a way filled that space

Social media is a temporary fix. If had filled the space, how come people didn't make do with it during the lockdown and were still complaining about being bored even though they were online?

Firstnebo:
I sure well know you are not good at international affairs, but incompetence and Donald Trump does not belong in the same sentence.

You hear incompetence because he has had massive, raging opposition from the media, and that's what you are spoon fed.

1) He is no incompetence when he vigorously remade American military after so much neglect by Obama

2) He is not incompetent when he stopped Washington's war on American energy (while overlooking China's massive climate pollution)

3) He is not incompetent when after decades of failed promises from past presidents, he became the only one to move American embassy to Jerusalem

4) He is not incompetent to create a new feature of American military, the Space Force

5) He is not incompetent when he took it upon himself to begin a program that seeks to release thousands of black people in prison for no good reason or for good reasons but for too long behind bars (helping him is Kim Kardashian)

6) He is not incompetent to have created a foreign policy which has done so much to weaken Islamic terrorist groups like Bokoharam, Isis, ISIL, etc. (Obama's foreign policy gave them so much impetus)

7) He is not incompetent to be the first president to not only recognise but stand up to China's American and world manipulation

He is not incompetent to be the first American president in recent history to be able to make North Korea friend and curb the threat of accidental nuclear war.

The list goes on. Tell me more about incompetence, you sheep

Yes! Yes! Yes! You got red-pilled.

Elon Musk took the red pill officially two days ago. There's a global shift.

Candace Owens is redefining the role of black people in US politics.

Kanye took the rug from under Hollywood's elite.

The best the Left would threaten is to "cancel" but the cancel culture has never worked.

Every prominent person who moved to the Right who the Left canceled has gone on to do well :

Kanye, Candace, Charlie Kirk, Elon Musk, e.t.c.

Glad mainland Africans are waking up to this reality.

Empiree:
are you a detective to have dug up my post?. If that's Jesus that you believe in that's your problem, you know.

Anyways don't digress. Focus on this thread. Do you agree with CAN or not?.

You are guilty of blasphemy against Jesus Christ whom Christianity revers, yet you have the temerity to accuse another of religious bigotry?

Empiree, where is the shame?

Pretty rich coming from you, Empiree, who mocks Jesus.

airminem:
Wow. Football age

Yemi Slade is at least 34 years of age. In 2014, in the song she did with Falz ("Marry You" ), she stated she's 28. She also stated this in an interview back then.

2014 to 2020 is 6 years. 28 plus 6 is 34.

She's lying.

maynation:
Sweat tears.
Let's win the EPl first at least that will be 19 against your 20, let's see if you can come any close to our CL trophies.

Mind you, our goal was disallowed if not it would have been a draw.
I will deactivate my moniker if ATM win this match today.

E sure me die.

Don't be a Buhari - keep this promise.

Nikeballer:
Football started in the last 15yrs?....

Here we go ahead... History FC.

Nikeballer:
Dry!!!

Dry? You mean like Liverpool's trophy cabinet in the last 15 years? Alright.

maynation:
EPL?? We don win am already na. Abi you no know?

That's what I meant. After this year, the next time Liverpool would win the EPL, your grandchild would be in SSS1.

CrazyMan:
You guys tried anyways...at least the EPL is done and dusted for you people, so I'd say half bread is better than none.

So you can remove your mind from tonight's game and go to bed knowing that you aren't going empty handed this season.

The next time Liverpool would lift the EPL, Maynation would be a grandmother.

Now Liverpool would know what trolling means. For the ten months since May 7, 2019 you trolled us Barca fans, we'd make life hell for you all football wise. Starting this night. The war of trolling has begun.

Erediauwa:
[color=#ff9999]Unlike Arsenal which is currently the biggest Night Club in London, Baba life has refuse to show commitment to Nigeria after retaining the armband last year.

The lanky daura drunkard is just like one Jack Grealish of Aston Villa who has continued to be unproductive and leaving his team rock bottom of the chart.

Everything was provided for Gen. M. Buhari (rtd) to succeed in Nigeria FC, but the drunk captain failed woefully.[/color]

LOL.

Nairaland Akaebube at it again.

bindukwe:
I agree completely ... Even in the makeup department

Exactly why I dislike makeup and discourage mine against it. She's unique without it and extremely beautiful even without it, so why the makeup? I don't want you looking like every girl on social media - I want you looking like you.

Only females who are ugly or with forgettable faces should use makeup.

Thankfully, she goes for months without the makeup.

A very beautiful face ranks above large butts and boobs for many of us.

Starz825:
This kind girl plenty for naija...Dem dey call them mood swingers
Today Dem like you tommorow Dem dey treat u like shit

They aren't termed "mood swingers", but "cockteasers".

Jaymaestro:
The Obamas are so graceful, blessed and elegant. Beautiful People. My favourite Ame President .

Nonsense! Both their kids are known drug addicts who shag around with random hippie white dudes. Just Google it!

careytommy37:
by who?

I can't remember the last time i heard anything about her, so on what basis is she being admired?
The Liberal/leftwing media will do anything to continue spinning their imaginative narratives.

Nobody takes the Liberals and the Left seriously. No rational and informed person does anyway.

Michelle Obama who has nothing to her name and person other than tagging along her hypocrite husband, Obama, is the most admired woman in the world? Hogwash! Even Zuckerberg's wife, Priscilla Chan, is more admirable than Michelle.
